Chapter 667: Three Boxes

In the end, Lao Meng and Ethan walked in the front, and the group entered the cave and advanced along the mountain road.

After walking for more than half an hour, the bloody smiling face did not appear again, and the bloody eyes that Lao Meng and Ethan said did not appear.

What made everyone even more relieved was that after they entered the cave, no one disappeared out of thin air, which made everyone a little surprised, and finally got rid of the fear and oppression of death.

However, the old ghost and the others are still very careful to be vigilant, no one has disappeared now, it doesn't mean that the threat really doesn't exist, this cave may not be the right path to enter the burial place, maybe they are just walking towards another more terrifying layout.

After going deep into the cave, there was no light in it, and there was no way to use even lighting equipment such as electric lights, at this time, Terreg and the others took out a special stone, which itself emitted a brilliant green light, and it could glow on its own without reflecting light.

A few of these stones can be used as lighting equipment by fixing this kind of stone on the star armor of the arm, and now Li Mu finally understands why there are so many manual switches and grooves on the star armor, which originally had their uses.

Most of the functions of the Star Armor are limited by strange powers in the Burial Place, and only these most primitive functions can still play a role.

This cave is very strange, a straight road, there are no forks at all, before everyone was worried that there were too many forks in it, it was difficult to choose the right route, now it seems that worrying is superfluous, they have no choice at all. There's only one way for them to go.

"Ahh They walked in the cave for more than three hours, and everyone was in a relaxed mood. Lao Meng, who was walking in the front, suddenly shouted, and everyone in fright took out their weapons as quickly as possible.

"Don't be nervous. It's not a living thing, it looks like there's a skeleton in front of it. Ethan, who was also ahead of the curve, said.

At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they were still vigilant to look ahead, and sure enough, they saw that on the side of the cave, there was a skeleton, wearing something I don't know what it was, it had already rotted into shape, and there was only a pile of bones left.

"This is the bones of the Yi people." Lao Meng cautiously walked in front of the skeleton to make sure that there was no danger in his hand. Using the knife in his hand to pick open the rotten metal slag covered by the skeleton to make the skeleton skeleton inside clearer, he said with some surprise after confirming it.

"Are you sure about the bones of the Yi people?" Terreg's face changed, and he walked closer to look at the skeleton, which was indeed the bones of the Yi people, and the characteristics were very obvious.

"That's not right, in the age when the ancient artifacts and burial places appeared, the Yi people were probably still primitive single cells. How could there be Yi bones here? Unless......" Lao Meng did not finish.

"Unless someone has already entered this burial place before we do." Ethan said coldly.

"Damn, someone came in one step earlier than us, and I don't know if it's thousands of years or tens of thousands of years earlier, and the good things in it won't all be taken away by them." Lao Meng shouted.

"I don't think so." Ethan said in a shrill voice, "The place we came in was an intact mountain wall. The wall had not been damaged before, which meant that it could not have been someone who had come in from that side, but who had entered the cave from another place. ”

"That's not worse. This shows that there is another way out, maybe they have already taken their things and run away. Lao Meng was even more worried after listening to Ethan's words.

"You don't have a brain. If they could get out, why should they come to this cave? "The old ghost really can't listen to it anymore. said to Lao Meng beside him.

"Maybe there's more than one of them? The rest of the people have long since run away. Lao Meng said unconvinced.

"It's true that there was more than one of them, and I don't know if they ran out or not, but apparently they walked in such a mess that they didn't even understand the bodies of their companions." The old ghost said.

"The dead are all dead, what else are you going to sort out?" Lao Meng said.

"The corpse is left alone, but they must at least take away what is useful from the corpse." The old ghost pointed to the rotten metal shards.

The old ghost used his knife to flick the debris there, only to see something rolling out of it, which turned out to be a ninth-level star stone.

"Do you think someone wouldn't even want this thing?" The old ghost pouted.

"I'm sure I'll want it anyway." Lao Meng continued to use his knife to rummage in the metal slag, and soon turned out three more pieces, and then there was nothing else, except for these four ninth-level star stones, everything else had rotted into slag.

"Judging from this situation, this person either got separated from his accomplices and died here somehow, or their people were trapped, and this person was also looking for a way, and he was trapped and died here without finding a way out." Ethan said.

"Let's keep going, at least we already know that this is not a dead end, there must be something ahead." Tyreg ordered the group to move on.

Continue to walk along the cave, this time did not go far, about less than twenty minutes, the narrow cave in front of them suddenly opened up, they entered a huge space, and soon found that this is a stone cave that has been made into a palace, everything in the cave is directly carved from the rock of the mountain, there are stone tables, stone chairs and stone statues, it looks very much like the stone hall used for sacrifice in ancient times.

And the place where Li Mu and the others came out was not the gate of the stone hall, but the wall on the side of the stone hall, and a hole was opened in the wall, which was the cave they came into.

"Damn, sure enough, someone came in before us, this cave was opened by someone, maybe they wanted to get out of here, but I don't know why, the cave was about to be opened, but they gave up again, and retreated back from the cave, the body of the Yi people, I'm afraid it was there when they retreated, I was a little strange just now, the corpse seemed to be a little wrong, the posture he poured, obviously fell down and died when he ran this way, not going to the side of the cave at all." The old ghost understood something, and exclaimed with an ugly face.

Everyone understood why the old ghost's face was so difficult to look at, these people had the ability to open such a long cave, and their strength was far above them, if even those people were trapped here, they would probably be even more difficult to get out alive.

"Why didn't they open the cave? I don't believe they don't feel it, the cave is about to be opened, what is stopping them? Li Mu said contemplatively.

"Are they afraid that they will disappear one by one if they go out?" Lao Meng said.

"Impossible, since they were able to enter the mountain, they must have experienced that strange thing before, and they didn't come in by mistake like us, but really broke through the Dachuan Tibetan Abyss and came in, how could they not know what was going on outside, since they wanted to make a hole and get out, then there must be a way to deal with the strange disappearance, there must be something else that prevented them from giving up when they were about to succeed." Li Mu said.

"What could be the reason for that? What could be scarier than that eerie disappearance? The old ghost groaned as he touched the hair on his chin.

"Could it be that smiling face, or that bloody eye?" Lao Meng's voice trembled a little and said, thinking of that eye, Lao Meng still had some palpitations.

Everyone thought it was very likely, but they didn't see any smiling faces and bloody eyes all the way, and there was no danger along the way.

It's just that this doesn't make them feel at ease, but they feel more depressed, and the enemy they know exists, but they can't see it, anyway, they are even more afraid.

"It's useless to think so much, let's explore the situation in this hall first." Tyreg commanded the group to split into groups of three and begin to search the hall.

Because the main hall is very large, but the glowing stones on their bodies can only illuminate the space within two meters nearby, and they can't see things clearly if they are farther away, so they can only explore the main hall first.

Li Mu and Lao Meng and the old ghost were in a group, the three of them walked along the wall to the left, and there were many stone statues next to them, the statues were some strange monsters, and Li Mu couldn't see what kind of monster this was.

On the walls, there are some reliefs, and there are also many monsters, which seem to correspond to these statues next to them, and I don't know what they mean.

The three of them walked more than a hundred meters, and they reached the end of one end of the main hall, turned and walked a few more forward, and saw a stone platform, under the light of the gem, they vaguely saw that there seemed to be a few things on the stone platform.

"Let's go up and have a look." Lao Meng was the most daring, so he wanted to climb to the top of the stone platform to see what those things were.

The old ghost grabbed him and whispered, "Be careful of what hands and feet are on this stone platform, I'll take a look first." ”

The old ghost gently stroked the stone platform with his iron hook-like nails, and after a while, the tip of the nail was a little above the side wall of the stone platform, and he actually poked it directly, and then only heard a click, as if something was broken, and the old ghost said to Lao Meng: "Okay, you can go up." ”

Lao Meng jumped directly on the stone platform, Li Mu and the old ghost also jumped up one after another, slowly approached the few things on the stone platform, and took a closer look with the light of the gem, there were three boxes neatly and side by side on the stone platform, the boxes were pitch black, and they looked like they were made of metal, but they couldn't see what metal they were.

Li Mu glanced at the three boxes and found that the front of the boxes was locked with an ancient lock, but the locks of two of the boxes had been opened, and one of the big black iron locks that had been broken was still lost in front of the boxes, and the other was missing.

"Someone has already opened the box." Lao Meng looked at the box and swallowed his saliva, the box that appeared in the burial place usually contained some ancient artifacts and other things, although two of them had been opened here, but there was one intact one. (To be continued......)
